Problems solved by technology

Barrel whip reduces the accuracy of the projectile expelled from the barrel and, therefore, the ability of a shooter to hit a target.
Therefore, for multiple shots, the heat generated by the shots can adversely affect the accuracy of the barrel.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]Referring to FIG. 1A through 1D, a barrel 10, which may be part of a shotgun, rifle, or cannon weapons system, is used as an example in describing this invention to one skilled in the art. It should be understood that this invention can be used with and applied to weapons systems using a barrel for expelling a projective, and in particular for a shotgun, rifle, or cannon barrel. For example, the Ruger 10 / 22 firing .22 caliber rounds to 12 gauge shotguns and to large caliber cannons such as the 120 mm smooth bore cannon of the United State M1A1 Abrams.

[0020]Generally, such weapons systems include a barrel 10 having a receiver 12 and muzzle 14. Open sights 16a and 16b can be included optionally carried by barrel 10. Round 18a, which may be a shotgun shell containing multiple shot or a single slug projectile cartridge round, is received by barrel 10. Rounds can be either inserted individually into the breech or through a magazine configuration 20 for holding multiple rounds as is...

Abstract

This invention is directed to a rifle barrel and a method for modifying a pre-existing rifle barrel comprising dissembling said pre-existing rifle so that said barrel is removed from said pre-existing rifle placing said barrel in a sleeve having an inner diameter larger then said diameter of said barrel for receiving said barrel thereby defining a void arranged between said barrel and said sleeve when said barrel is placed in said sleeve reducing the outer diameter of said barrel near the breach end of said barrel so that said sleeve will cover said barrel up to the action of said rifle when said barrel is placed in said sleeve filling said void defined by said barrel and said sleeve with filler material attaching a weld-on thread assemble to said sleeve at the muzzle end of said barrel and assembling said pre-existing rifle with said barrel placed in said sleeve.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001]This application claims priority on United States provisional patent applications: Ser. No. 61 / 176,200; Ser. No. 61 / 230,450 and Ser. No. 61 / 287,785.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention is directed to a weapons system having a rifle, shotgun or cannon barrel. This invention is directed to the construction of a rifle, shotgun or cannon barrel and method of modification providing a sandwich barrel design for reducing heat and harmonics and for improving accuracy.BACKGROUND[0003]It has been long understood that a rifle's barrel changes shape and moves in multiple directions every time the rifle is fired. This effect is also found in shotgun and cannon barrels. In some instances, this movement of the barrel has been coined “barrel whip” and is when a weighted object (bullet) travels down the tubular barrel under intense gas pressure generally defined as when the barrel away from its “static” state. Barrel whip can occur when the bullet accelerates into a rapi...
